@@anotherhappylanding4746 I agree completely, but the whole walk away from a 140mph explosion thing... the cockpit was well designed, the fire retardant race suit, the lightening fast response of the fire and safety team, that was all spot on.

@@lylejohnson7120as it should be. They learn from their mistakes. Take nascar, they have something called a halo essentially hold their head in place and the tech was designed due to Dale Earnhearts( don’t know how to spell his name) death due to his crash.

@@ncikcochran724 I am just glad these industries learn from their mistakes. It makes me think of the 1955 Le Mans disaster where a car managed to jump into the stands killing 83 spectators and injuring 120 more. Never again would a car do that to its fans on that scale. Even in the wreck in this video he hit that wall going roughly 140mph almost dead on and though the wall was damaged the car did not fully penetrate and keep going. Designing guardrails that can hold up to that kind of impact is very impressive.

It doesn't matter how much of a rival you are in racing your goal is beat them not for them to die.

Well said! He is one of my favorite drivers also! Patricia Gambino Harrington( I post on my hubby's KZfaq acct)

It's also due to the fact that Charles already experienced similar situations before where the outcome was unfortunately not the same

I agree, got my eyes teary hearing the drivers get worried about him. They care about each other It's so heartwarming.

They have, at the very least, a massive amount of respect for each other as people who risk their lives in this extreme sport every day. They know what it's like, and what the stakes are. And none of them want to lose someone they know and respect on that track. True sportsmen.

when I got into a motorcycle accident I thought "finally I can die" as my head was going through the windshield of a car. But then again, I have severe depression..

Not denying the insanity of this crash and Romain's willpower to pull himself out of the car, but the survival cell is designed to tear away from the rest of the car in a high speed crash to help dissipate the energy. That is one of F1's many safety features working as it should. How the hell he got out of this with 'minor' burns is a testament to how far safety in F1 has come. HANS, the halo, fire resistant suits and the sheer strength of the chassis in combination with crumble zones/breakaways. The halo saved him here, 4 years prior and he was dead without a doubt.

Halo effect (survived BCS of cage called halo. Just wanted to make that joke)

The car is designed to sheer to reduce impact force, the survival cell that the drivers sit in, is what saved Grosjean's life here. I still remember the days of F1 when this would have been a death.

@@armaanmodi If it requires an explanation, then it is impossible to explain it to you. But I'll try: The safety equipment saved his life In this crash but absolutely didn't guarantee his survival, just gave him a CHANCE (quite minimal tbh) and some TIME to save himself. He was stuck in the burning half of car and he was in shock after the huge 67 G impact, but he had to keep somehow his cool to undo all the seatbelts and cables in a fireball, to hold his breath as not to burn his lungs, to unblock calmly his foot which was stuck (he jumped out without 1 shoe!), to find the very narrow exit gap from his car sideways (blind and without oxygen!), not to panic despite the desperation and pain, not to do wrong movements because he had ONLY 28 SECONDS to react! Otherwise, just in 5-10 seconds he could black out from lack of oxygen, hot toxic fumes, pain, and the game will be over. No way someone but him could have saved him.

Anyone who downplays his survival in this crash is a moron!

I completely agree. Dale Earnhardt for example, his crash looked minor and pretty much everyone thought he was gonna be just fine and walking away from it (granted he wasn't racing F1 but the point still stands). This is a massive crash by modern F1 standards. We've built these cars to withstand these crashes and to not go up in flames like this, and to see a fireball that big with a modern car is enough to make my heart stop

Dale Earnhardt is a huge example. His crash looked tame and normal by comparison to most motorsport crashes

@@kelbyschultz1877 Not a race fan of any sort, but I saw a couple of racing crashes, some cars even go AIRBORNE and the driver lives. Dale's crash didn't even came close to being that spectacular. It's as straightforward as it can be: He went straight into a wall and slowly stopped. That's it. You can't underestimate danger, even the tamest can actually be the most dangerous. RIP

The length of time in the fire is what's really amazing. More than 30 sec and those fire suits stop being very effective even the high end ones only give ya 60 to 70 sec with the full hood and underwear. He was in there for over 2 min, before you see him stand up. It took over a min for the safety crew to get to the wreck. You lose track of time when shit is slowed down for dramatic effect.

It was decades of safety engineering progress, but I get what you mean.

Miracle and a lot of work

@@The_ZeroLine Engineering actually failed there. The gas explosive fire isnt supposed to be possible and neither isnt the car meant to be cut in two, which caused the fireball. Yes, alot of good engineering still helped there but in this one its faith more than anything to survive it.

@@mikkolappalainen_ I don’t consider it a failure because the guy got out with minor injuries in an accident that would have been fatal for 95% of F1’s history. Obviously, it was a failure in terms of fire was not supposed to break out from a kevlar encased fuel tank, but there are always odd freak circumstances that can result in unexpected results. It is unrealistic to have SAFE barriers around 100% of the track. The odds of someone crashing where Grosjean did are astronomical. Just like Bianchi, the drive shares some of the blame for doing things they shouldn’t have. Unrelated, but the same team has been in all three of the biggest accident since Kubica in Montreal: Bianchi, Grosjean and Mick Schumacher today. Bianchi was Manor which eventually became Haas.

@@The_ZeroLine I find it unbelievable that they have just those metal barriers like you'd see on a freeway. I hope changing that is what comes out of this.

Instead, it’s cheapened by making it feel just the same as every other made-up storyline in the show.

It was almost the same on the live broadcast. The car blew out, than 5-10 mins of nothing and only after they showed him.

had a couple of meals, grew a beard - shaved it off...... THEN Romain got clear of the car.

No all drivers went back to home met thier family had good time and than grosjean came out of fire ball....

The rest of the drivers went to pit lane, had a bite and a wee nap, went back on track for a few pace laps, then finished the rest of the race. After the post race festivities, Romain was able to get out of the car.

Honestly, by making this scene longer Netflix did a good job to imitate the absolute hell Romain was experiencing during these long 28 seconds in fire, as well as the eternity it felt for everybody to wait on live TV until we knew he was alive (3 long minutes). Watch his interview on KZfaq "EXCLUSIVE! Romain Grosjean reveals how he escaped horrific fireball crash" and you'll see how it was for him and his family.

28 seconds or 2 in fire, it's still a miracle he could survive. Grosjean deserves a lot of credit for it. Yes, the halo, cockpit and fire resistant suit saved his life initially, but absolutely didn't guarantee his survival, just gave him a small chance and some time to save himself. His suit can resist only 30 seconds in fire, and his gloves only 10 (that's why he burned his hands). Imagine the horror from seeing the barrier coming at you at breakneck speed, then suffering an enormous 67 G impact and an explosion, then you are BY MIRACLE still conscious and you realize that you are completely stuck somewhere in a wreck and all you can see is a fire.🔥😱💀 Yet, Romain managed somehow to keep his cool to undo properly all the belts and cables, to hold his breath as not to burn his lungs, to unblock his foot which was stuck (he jumped out without 1 shoe!), to find the very narrow exit gap from his car sideways (blind and without oxygen!), not to panic despite the desperation and pain, not to do wrong moves because the smallest mistake or delay would lead to his death as he had ONLY 28 SECONDS to react! Otherwise, just in 5-10 seconds the lack of oxygen, hot toxic fumes, pain would make his escape impossible. No way someone but him could pull him out in time and the fire was put off only 10 minutes later.

Actually no, it didn't feel like forever. When the camera cut to the scene of the crash in the live footage, he was already out. Yes, it was an absolutely insane crash, but it was also extremely exeggerated in the Netflix series which is generally okay beacuse it's entertainment. But they stretched the true sequence of events quite a bit here. Everyone knew that he was okay a few seconds after the crash had happened. The images of that fireball were spectacular nonetheless, but we only saw them after he was already out of it.

I remember that the TV director chose to cut away. We saw the fireball and then we just saw all the cars driving around under red flag. It wasn't until after we knew he'd got out alive and virtually unscathed that they showed the footage in replay. Class move by that director.

@@karlbassett8485 Bad move by the director. He was out the car in 28 seconds but everyone was obliged to think he was dead almost 3 minutes before they finally showed his beautiful face in the medical car.

Thanks to the engineers for inventing the halo...

1. Modern F1 technology: strong survival cell (no broken legs), halo (no impact on his head), HANS (no damage on his neck), Nomex fire-retardant suit and helmet (no critical burns on his body, no damage to his lung). 2. A big piece of Luck (or God if you are religious): not completely trapped by the barrier, his foot not completely blocked by the pedal, etc... 3. His training, his physical and mental strength to deal somehow with the shock and pain, not to be knocked out after 67 G impact and not to panic. If you remove just 1 element, he would be dead.

@@iandavidvillaloboswong5180 The time from the crash to Grosjean escaping was actually only thirty seconds. Netflix's editing makes it look like it was much longer. There will be marshalls stationed all around the track, though it would be impossible for them all to attend in such a small space of time.

That is Dr Roberts, the official doctor. He wasn't scared; he was physically unable to get closer because of the heat, and he was wearing an open-face helmet. He actually had burns on his face from the heat.

Yeah

Ask the motorcycle racers.....No gear = death. Today's technology is absolutely amazing.

@@sebastianiji true, and they said the 'halo' looks ugly and unnecessary 😂

Alpinestar

Must of been firetrap sorry couldn’t resist lol 😂

The worst accident I’ve ever seen someone get out of. I thought he died tbh. Was getting Hubert flashbacks. RIP anthoine.

@@thelittleowl1 If I remember correctly, as a TV spectator you only saw the crash and fire from the very end of the straight line, and then they quickly changed it to the cars going back into the pitlane and there was no info at all for the next 20 minutes or so (at least that's what it felt like), even though he came out of the car in like 30 seconds. Definitely thought I had just seen a driver die

They did a great job capturing what it feels like to await word on a serious crash. I was racing dirt oval go karts once when I wound up having to navigate through a huge wreck. One kid wound up somersaulting through the air and landing right on his head. They immediately stopped the race and had us park on the front straight and shut off our engines. I got out of the kart and looked across at the accident scene, and I can authoritatively say I've never heard a race track go so eerily quiet. You could hear a pindrop. And I saw that kart, upside down, and I knew the driver was trapped underneath. They must have had the race stopped for no more than 5 minutes, but as God is my witness, it felt like an hour. The whole world seemed to sigh in relief when they got the kart right-side-up and he got out and walked away. I'll never forget that moment.

@@mank11nd yeah I didn’t see much. Saw the explosion and fire and then cut away.

@@mank11nd correct,i was watching the Sky Sports coverage and right after the fireball you got about 15-20 mins of other dribers reactions on the radio and in pitlane.the commentators did say after about 5 mins he was believed to be out of the car and counsious,however it was about 20 mins until they finally showed him sitting in the medical car in total shock but seemingly ok.after that they showed us these horrible footage that till this day makes me silent,even after watching motorsports for over 30 years and losing alot of idols i followed on track this one sticks with me because of the positive outcome nobody expected.

And they would have been an eternity for Grosjean locked in his seat with flames climbing all over his gloves and helmet.

Tru but Netflix still cut it like he was in there for almost 3minutes. That they already used for several minutes fire extinguisher etc. But in reality Grosjean came out of the car before the Marshall and the Medic started to work. 3:20 Grosjean already leaving the car in this scene. And below this video several people now thinking that he survived almost 3mins in the car

It felt like 5 years. We allways watch the races together (10 or 11 friends) its allways a big party. But back then the room was dead silenced.

true. Still can't believe it was barely half of a minute. That felt like an eternity. I even thought to myself it must be pretty bad, when they don't cut back to the scene for such a long time. Kind of surreal that it were only 28 seconds

I know right, It was scary af

Furia francese

And his body didn’t even full recovered

the spirit of a racing driver. niki lauda got back in the car after 5 weeks and half of his face was disfigured as a result of the accident. if you have such a bad accident you have to get back into the car as quickly as possible and otherwise the human instinct will take hold. Then it is very difficult to get back to a high level you have to learn to ignore the fact that you can die in this sport otherwise you don't even need to drive

The man just loves to race. There is no point in life for some racers without racing

Absolute balls of steel, how does his racecar even drive with such a weight?

Funny. It makes me roll my eyes

@@tombellamy444 F

Except there is no god. He was lucky

@@kanelbullar464 How do you know?

@@Yenikullanici81 i got a brain

There never was negativity towards Grosjean, the other drivers disliked him for good reasons. It was karma that he himself became the victim of his self inflicted accident that day and not anyone else as it usually were. A truly terrible driver and completely unaware of how dangerous he was.

@@pflaffik wtf you don't say someone in a ball of fire is karma you are sick fuck

@@pflaffik If I may ask, why was he disliked? why did the other drivers fear that he was gone if he was disliked so much? or are you pulling this stuff out your arse because if you don't like him nobody should?

@@TrollFace93 pulls it out of her arse. Negative person.

@@TrollFace93 It is documented that he was unpopular as a driver as he made lots of rookie mistakes that he struggled to learn from. Caused a few crashes including Japanese Grand Prix. He also got on the wrong side of some people in his social media. Seems like he went on to wind up some of the people in indy car racing too I don't think he's a bad person... just controversial in some ways. You don't get an F1 seat if you are not an exceptional driver... doesn't mean you are a good racer or competitor though...

They applauded him

When he came out the other drivers were still on track. Luckily the whole thing lasted less than half a minute I believe

when he came out, the other drivers were still driving u dumbass

@@DasKloputzer the guys that were in the station with the radio...you moronic fuck!

This is edited very poorly he was out before they got back in the pit lane. In fact in some of the shots you can actually see him sitting behind the safety car. This was amazing enough that he survived they didn’t need to make it seem like he was in the fire for minutes.
